For years, manual lever-style fifth wheels were the go-to product in the semi-trailer business. Today, air-release fifth wheels have been introduced, providing convenience. So, what’s the difference between manual and air-release fifth wheels, and which option is best for you based on your application? We’re here to tell you all about it.

They say, “If you bought it, a truck brought it.” And in addition to that being a dandy title for a country song, for fleet managers, the fact remains if a truck brought it, it likely did so in a trailer connected by a fifth wheel hitch.

Volvo Trucks will now equip fifth wheel coupling devices from JOST International as standard equipment on Volvo VN and VHD tractors manufactured at its Dublin, Va. plant, which assembles all Volvo trucks sold in North America.

Safety, stability, improved turning radius and ease of coupling and uncoupling are among the many benefits of a truck’s fifth wheel, but this vital component requires regular maintenance and here are five things you need to know about fifth wheels.

Suppose you’re considering buying a trailer or have owned one before. In that case, you may have encountered the dilemma of choosing between a fifth wheel or a traditional travel trailer.

Fifth-wheel trailers have always occupied a unique place in the RV market. Spacious and stylish, these models combine the size and luxury of a Class A motorhome with the convenience of a smaller travel trailer. This makes the large towables an excellent option for families, full-time RVers, or anyone looking for a comfortable camping experience.As with most types of RVs, there are literally dozens of fifth-wheel models to choose from. Most range in length from 25-45 feet, with the average trailer coming in at about 32 feet. This gives them plenty of space for not only bringing friends and family along on camping trips but all of the outdoor gear, food and beverages, and other items you’ll need for any adventure.

A fifth wheel is a home on wheels that offers the most spacious accommodations and luxurious amenities of any other type of towable RV. Unlike a motorhome, fifth wheels tow behind a heavy-duty truck, giving you more mobility than a Class A or Class C RV. Fifth wheel RVs are also a cost-effective alternative to the expensive and ongoing costs associated with hotel lodging, eating at restaurant and traveling by air.Fifth wheels are great for larger families and for those who want some privacy while camping. The roomy interiors are also perfect for hosting get-togethers with friends and family. Additionally, they offer a smoother driving experience with less sway, so they work well for longer trips.

While travel trailers attach to your vehicle using the conventional hitch ball system found on most trucks and SUVs, fifth wheels use a special hitch, which can only attach to the bed of a pickup truck. Because fifth wheels tend to be larger and heavier than travel trailers, you’ll need a pickup truck with a high tow capacity. That said, many people find that towing a fifth wheel is easier than towing a travel trailer because of the way it is hitched.
